The Hunted Hunter

Chapters 123. Preparing the Forces

Ma Guang's entourage is now entering the city of Bochang.

Ma Guang ordered his soldiers to prepare to form a defense if they get an attack from the troops guarding the fortress of Bochang city.

And they began to approach the entrance of the city of Bochang with the position of lined up five people and extending to the back.

After Ma Guang arrived in front of the gate of Bochang city, the soldiers on guard immediately gave way to his troops.

Ma Guang immediately stopped and stayed at the place where the soldiers were on duty to check on everyone who wanted to enter the city.

While in the front row, Xia Jiao and also Yuan Jiali were in the lead and were also in charge of blocking if there was an impending attack.

Finally the entire Ma Guang entourage had entered the city of Bochang entirely.

Ma Guang thought, if their group was already in the city and attacked by troops in the city. It means they are desiring the destruction of their city.

Ma Guang's entourage was welcomed by the city's ruler Bochang and asked him to rest in the city, but Ma Guang continued his journey.

Such a thing was also what they experienced upon entering Le'an city and also Qiansheng city.

When they were at the border between Linzi province and Jibei province, their entourage finally rested.

The troops assigned to watch the enemy's every move remained scattered three hundred meters away from where they rested.

The next day they went back on their way through the city of Laoling as well as the city of Qiantong.

Ma Guang's entourage was welcomed by the people of both cities.

Ma Guang also ordered his troops to create a camp in the border area of the Yellow Bamboo sect which would be the place for the soldiers who followed him.

The higher-ups as well as the sect disciples directly descended the mountain while getting reports from the sect disciples who were in charge of guarding the border region of the sect.

They were hand in hand helping Ma Guang's forces to create a Camp.

Finally the camp was finished in a few hours, so Ma Guang immediately went to the sect with the sect elders to explain what had really happened.

Arriving at the sect's main hall, the other higher-ups had already gathered at that place.

Ma Guang started telling me what had happened.

"What's? How could it be like that?".

"Why do princes and kings think that way?".

"Why do they not appreciate your giving in defending the sovereignty of this Qi kingdom? Is that how people in government think?".

A voice came out from the mouths of the sect higher-ups gathered at that place.

Everyone issued their own opinions about what had just been experienced and told by Ma Guang.

That night became the beginning where a sect began to think of becoming the only force that would oppose the ruler of the Qi kingdom.

The high-level elders were directly sent to head to the three cities that their sects were protecting and met with each city lord to listen to how they would respond to what they had just done king and prince against Ma Guang.

If they were more in favor of the king and the prince. The forces of Ma Guang and the Yellow Bamboo sect will seize the city.

But if the city lord preferred to support the Yellow Bamboo sect as well as Ma Guang. They will devise a strategy to deal with every attack or strategy that will be applied by the king.

The next day, Ma Guang instantly encouraged each of his soldiers to raise their martial arts skills.

They continued to get guidance from Ma Guang, Xia Jiao, Yuan Gao and also Yuan Jiali.

While the disciples of the Yellow Bamboo sect were also given the same training to become a formidable warrior.

So that the strength and physical endurance of the Yellow Bamboo sect disciples would become even more formidable.

And sure enough, there were dozens of Disciples and there were also five low-level elders who had the same mark as those in the You Tao group of commanders.

Ma Guang immediately separated them and introgated him.

It was witnessed by all the disciples and the higher-ups of the Yellow Bamboo sect.

The patriarch was immediately stunned when he saw what Ma Guang had just done.

The middle-aged man did not know if his sect had been infiltrated by the eyes of the Lai kingdom.

Ma Guang did not allow them to go and tell him about what had happened in the Qi kingdom, because it would cause suffering for the people of the kingdom in the event of war.

If you think about the treatment shown by the king and prince, of course Ma Guang will let the Lai kingdom know what has just happened so they attacked the Qi kingdom.

But Ma Guang did not want that to happen. So that these people were immediately killed by him.

Finally the high-level elders sent to meet with the rulers in the three cities that their sects had always protected had returned, they directly reported to the patriarch of the sect as well as to Ma Guang the results of the meeting they had.

The three city lords strongly supported the Yellow Bamboo sect as well as Ma Guang.

Ma Guang immediately brought his troops to the city of Laoling.

After entering the city of Laoling, Ma Guang immediately met with the ruler of Laoling city.

They immediately talked about the strategy they would implement in anticipation of any unexpected attacks from the royal forces.

The first thing they do is everyone - people who are in the city must be checked first, both in the palace of the city lord, the city, whether it is in every residence of the nobles and also every citizen who is in the city.

Once done, the entire city gate will be guarded by Ma Guang troops and will check everyone who will enter the city.

Everyone who could enter, would continue to be watched over by the high-level elders who had been assigned to it.

While the troops in the city will be trained to become more formidable soldiers.

So is the case with the city of Qiantong and also the city of Nanpi.

But the city of Nanpi has a difference from the other two cities, it is caused because in the north of the city is directly adjacent to the kingdom of Yan, Yan, so that the troops in the city were more than the other two cities.

The number of troops in the city was ten thousand more. The others were inside the city of Nanpi and the others were in the border region to patrol.

Ma Guang continued to prepare his strength to face every possibility that the king of Qi Guan Zhong and the prince of Qi Yuan would do.

No exception with the region that was to the east of the Yellow Bamboo sect. The Pechili sea area was guarded directly by some Ma Guang troops and also by Yellow Bamboo sect disciples.

By preparing every trap if the enemy attacks come from the sea.

All preparations to welcome each attack were prepared by Ma Guang.

While general Fan Gui who had heard what happened to Ma Guang immediately felt disappointed by the actions carried out by the king and the prince.

The same thing was felt by the ruler of Pingdu city, the general of Tian Ju, the general of Yang Bin and the general Meng Yin who was also the ruler of Buqi city.

They did not expect that due to the wishes of the prince who wanted to have women who were often together with Ma Guang, so that the king could sacrifice the safety of his people.

The spirit of the troops in the border region directly adjacent to the Lai kingdom immediately decreased after hearing the news.

They feel that their leaders think only of personal interests above the interests of their people.

As well as not appreciating the struggle that has been done by Ma Guang, what else with their struggle that is not too influential individually, it certainly will not get an award.
